Damon Lindelof’s take on the WGA strike

by Peggie Brott

Damon Lindelof, and Marc Cherry, creater of Desparate Housewives, join the picketers on the ABC/Dinsey lot earlier this week. They make their point in a simple way, eventually the internet will be our main source for television viewing. Do writers make any money from the internet, their broadcasters websites, or all that wonderful advertising placed on those websites? Nope.
See what they have to say:

To stay up to date with the WGA’s strike, and who is supporting them (people from Scrubs, Desparate Housewives, Heroes, Lost, Grey’s Anatomy, as well as Drew Carey, Joss Whedon, Jesse Jackson…. I could go on and on with supporters), and to sign the petition, bookmark this blog called United Hollywood. WGA is also video blogging on You Tube, so be sure to check that out as well.

About Watching Lost

LOST - a television show that fascinates and captivates fans week after week. No show has ever prompted me to discuss it, theorize about it, question it, obsess over it, and write about it until now. That's what this site, Watching Lost, is all about. If you're like me and love LOST, then this is the place for you. Every weekday, I will bring you news, theories, spoilers, recaps, and general discussions about the show, the characters, and the actors. I am by no means a Lost expert, but I love the show, and I love trying to figure out what the heck is going on! We're all in this together, so please use the comment sections to keep discussions alive. Remember, live together, die alone. Enjoy!
